DISCOVER A TOTALLY GRIPPING CRIME MYSTERY BY A BESTSELLING AUTHOR

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Next of Kin is crime fiction writing at its best. If you only read one crime novel this year make it Next of Kin.” Bart
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “A cracker that I read in one sitting, unable to put it down.” Elaine T.
“The plot kept me guessing, the action was fast and furious and kept me tapping my Kindle to get to the next page like a woman possessed.” Angie
“There is something about a Maureen Carter crime novel that makes you want to invite the characters in for a nice cuppa (or in most cases something a little stronger) . . . Next of Kin is an intimate study of crime and human nature.” Elaine A.
MEET DI SARAH QUINN
DI Sarah Quinn is a career police office dedicated to the job — and the rule book. In her relentless pursuit of hardened criminals, she’s ice-cold, cucumber-calm and extremely driven. Is it any wonder colleagues call her the Ice Queen — though not often to her face? But, like icebergs, Sarah Quinn has hidden depths and a job with hidden dangers.
THE SETTING
The vibrant, buzzing, diverse city of Birmingham provides the setting for the Sarah Quinn crime novels. The DI’s patch covers everything from council housing to opulent enclaves, high rise flats to sleepy suburbs and sleazy back streets. The UK’s second city boasts more canal miles than Venice and more parks than Paris. Wherever crime breaks out, DI Quinn is on the case and on the criminal’s trail . . .
